I'm downloaded the Java EE version of Eclipse 3.5.1. Can I now use it to edit C/C++ with the proper plugin?
I went to Help >> Install New Software but I don't know which URL to use to get the C/C++ plugin. I can't find it on the Eclipse website either.
http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/ May be you need to download C/C++ IDE.
Just wanted to update the thread with the Juno (Eclipse 4.2) plugin link since I had some trouble finding it.
To install it on your existing eclipse go to Help >> Install New software >> Add and add the link: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/juno
If you need another version you can find it here.
Note that the update URL has changed from tracking the Eclipse name to an independent numeric version beginning with Luna:
CDT for Eclipse Luna - http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.6
CDT for Eclipse Mars - http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.8.1
CDT for Eclipse Neon - http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/9.0
1-In Eclipse (Juno) , go to " Help/Install new software" .
2- Install dialog appears , in front of "Work with:" input at the top row of dialog press the "Add..." button.
3- in the "Add Repository" dialog type something as name( for example CDT) and in the "Location" input box type: " http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/juno " and press OK.
If your connection to internet be good, after a while you should have "CDT main features" and "CDT Optional Features" appeared in the list.
You can download the package you want according to your eclipse version.
The CDT can either be installed as part of the Eclipse C/C++ IDE packaged zip file or installed into an existing Eclipse using the "Help->Install New Software->Add(near work with)" and provide following required URL:
Version: Luna Service Release 2 (4.4.2) Ubuntu: 14.04
Go to Help -> Install New Software
There is a text-box named "Work with".
http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/8.6
Wait for 5 minutes (Pending will appear)
Then, select "CDT main features" and "CDT optional features"
Click Next
Accept the agreement license
It will start downloading.
Alternative way to install CDT was tested under Ubuntu 16.04.2, Eclipse Neon3
Help > Eclipse Marketplace...
Enter "cdt" in Search > Find
Scroll down to locate Eclipse C/C++ IDE CDT x.x, click Install
You may have a problem with Galileo's download if you're behind a proxy. If it comes to it, this might help.

This is what you are looking for...
I have not tried the same with gallelio or helios but when tried installing CDT pluggin for the recent eclipse Indigo, it worked fine. It works with both ADT and CDT plugins simultaneously. The download URL for plugin is http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/indigo.
Installing CDT depends on version of eclipse you have.
This page will help you to download appropriate CDT based on the version on eclipse you have.
Go to http://www.eclipse.org/cdt/downloads.php You can either manually download the plugin then provide the local path in Help->Install New Software or you can directly provide the repository url.
For example if you are using Eclipse Helios then you can directly provide the CDT eclipse repository URL as http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/helios.
Tip:
try to get the .zip file for the plugin and paste it in dropins folder at eclipse/dropins because if you ever need to re install eclipse, this zip will be handy
https://eclipse.org/cdt/downloads.php
